“ A writer’s or

interpretation . . .” dictionary.reference.com/browse/artistic+license
Some of us
have mentioned the influence of others on our work, especially the influence
of famous artists or those well known in the world of fiber art. Over the
years, I have noticed works of art in museums and galleries and thought,
“wouldn’t that be a great quilt?” What painting, sculpture, photograph, architectural wonder or
graphic arts image
has given you inspiration?

Some artists modify older works of art to
develop new ones. What shapes, colors, composition or
media in the works of other have given you an “aha moment”? Or maybe you have
been inspired by something in the natural world.

case you need some images to get your creative juices flowing, this may prove
